Gluteal Region Flashcards
Sacrotuberous and Sacrospinous ligaments
What are the parts of the femur?
Head which fits into the acetubulum, neck, intertrochanter line, lesser/greater trochanter, and gluteal tuberosity
What are part of fibula?
head, articular surface, and apex (looks like styloid)
What does iliofemoral ligament attach?
AIIS to the intertrochanter line
What does pubofemoral ligament connect?
Obturator crest and intertrochanter line
What does ischiofemoral ligament connect?
it goes over the orbicular zone which are deep fibers that pass around femoral head and attaches to tip of greater trochanter
What does ligamentum teres connect?
fovea to the acetabulum
Which Muscles are involved in Flexion? (I STRAP ABAG)
Iliopsoas, Sartorius, Tensor Fascia Lata, Rectus Femoris, Pectineus, Adductor Longus, Adductor Brevis, Adductor Magnus, Gracilis
Which muscles are involved in extension?
Hamstrings, Adductor Magnus, Gluteus Maximus
What muscles are involved in Abduction?
Gluteus Medius, Gluteus minimus, Tensor Fascia Lata
What muscles are involved in Adduction?
Adductor Longus, Adductor Brevis, Adductor Magnus, Gracilis, Pectineus, Obturator Externus
What muscles are involved in medial rotation?
Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Minimus, Tensor Fascia Lata
What muscles are involved in lateral rotation?
Obturator Externus, Obturator Internus, Gemelli, Piriformis, Quadratus Femoris, Gluteus Maximus
What are the branches of the Internal Iliac artery (comes from common iliac)?
This breaks into an anterior and posterior division. The anterior division will branch into the inferior gluteal and internal pudendal. The posterior will branch into the the superior gluteal.
What are the branches of the external illiac artery (comes from common iliac)?
The external branches into the deep and femoral artery. The femoral goes off to become popiteal after passing through hiatus, and the deep artery of the thigh branches into medial circumflex which wraps around neck of humerus and lateral circumflex taht wraps between lesser and greater troch.
What are some vascular supplies to femoral head?
acetabular , obturator, retinacular arteries, and the two circumflexes
What are the 5 branches of the popiteal artery?
superior lateral genicular, inferior lateral genicular, inferior medial genicular, and superior medial genicular
Where does femoral and obturator nerve come from?
femoral comes from L2-L4 dorsal division
obturator comes from L2-L4 ventral division
